Speckles & Lilly photos

They are very friendly, iwe sit down to take a break from what I am doing they will look to hop on my lap. It’s best to have the tea towel handy in case they poop.

New Pekins – housing

For housing new arrivals I make use of a timber dog kennel that I scrounged off a neighbours nature strip during a hard rubbish collection. I replaced the front with a piece of melamine, note the  smaller entry more suited for little chooks.

Housing new Pekins 2011 – continued

In the previous post I blogged about heating the dog kennel to keep the little Pekins warm until they feather out some more.

I monitor the internal and external temps with a Projection Alarm Clock Temperature Station that I purchased from Bunnings for $10 – a clearance item.

Feline texting problems

Luna was having issues texting her feline friends, I advised her she had the phone upside – problem solved.

New Bantam Pekin girls

I have already posted that the new Pekins turned out to be roosters which was a real pity because they were very friendly and really clever. We returned them for the two below – definitely girls!

This one is white speckled and we named her Speckles.

This time we definitely have girls!
